Does English has Enslaved Us ?

When we the INDIANS complain that the English have enslaved us, it is as Drunkards complained that the spirit dealers who have settled among them have enslaved them.You tell them that they might give up drinking, but they reply that they are so accoustomed to it that they cannot obstain, and that they must keep alcohol to keep up their energy.Is not the same thing with the millions of the people to thousands or even to hundres of other their own or other Nations?
